Free plan, Plus from ~$10/user/mo, and it doubles as your wiki, handbook, project tracker, and onboarding hub, so you're not buying a separate tool. Weakness: it's a workspace, not a comms platform - no real broadcast/news feed, and search degrades once it's messy.\n2. **Confluence** - Free up to 10 users, Standard around $4.89/user/mo, which is the cheapest serious option here. Pick it if you're already in Jira; it's genuinely strong at technical docs and weak at anything resembling company culture or announcements.\n3. **Guru** - Free up to 3 users, from ~$10/user/mo. Narrower than the others: it's an AI-search knowledge layer that surfaces answers inside Slack and your browser rather than a destination site. Good if your problem is \"nobody can find anything,\" not \"we have nowhere to post things.\"\n\n**If you're mid-market (roughly 150-2,000 employees)**\n\n4. **Happeo** - Built specifically for t", "answer_truncated": true, "measurement": "One answer from one engine on one date.
